Chorefto
Edit SpotAbout
I wouldn't recommend going on a surf trip or a day trip there(Lagouvardos is much better),but if you do,have fun ...
Atmosphere:
The beach is pretty crowded during the summer.Respect the locals and you'll be fine.Otherwise it can pretty sketchy and believe me it's not worth it.
Additional Info:
The spot is not as good as other spots in Greece,but it's fun...nice spot for days when the swell is too small for Agios Ioannis. I've never been there on bigger days.
There is also a semi-point break at the southern end of the main beach, towards the harbor, but I haven't surfed there in 15 years or so. It used to be good with eastern swell
